Chapter 943: Chapter 943: Too Much Money
Tang Yue explained the details to Tang Mingli, pointing out the pros and cons. Previously, they only asked people to take good care of it, but now Tang Yue felt that mere safekeeping was not enough; even the old drafts needed to be thoroughly sorted and arranged.
"Xiao Yue, don’t worry. Now that we’ve thought it all through, everything will be handled perfectly." Tang Mingli said with a light tone. Hearing Tang Yue’s words, Tang Mingli also had some thoughts. He asked, "By the way, why did you bring Si Yu’s two partners along?"
Tang Mingli had a good memory. He had met Li Wei and Yan Dong, who had been around Meng Siyu, two or three times.
If he remembered correctly, those two were also part of the Pinganda Company, holding shares. He wondered why they were here at the factory rather than tending to their duties at Pinganda.
"To be your security guards." Tang Yue answered as if it was the most natural thing in the world.
"Pfft~"
Tang Mingli had just taken a sip of tea and hadn’t swallowed it yet. He spat it all out on the desk and quickly moved the documents to one side.
After hurriedly cleaning up, Tang Mingli looked at Tang Yue and asked, "Xiao Yue, are you kidding? It’s unlikely they’re here to be security guards at the factory."
"They are on vacation, and since they’re not busy elsewhere and you’re short of help, they’ll stay for a few days. Just treat them well with some nice meals and a place to stay." Tang Yue explained, leaving out half the story.
If she mentioned they were here to meet girls, Tang Mingli might just chase them away.
"Do they agree to this?" Tang Mingli raised an eyebrow and peeked outside. Seeing Li Wei and Yan Dong standing upright, he suspiciously asked, "You didn’t force them, did you?"
"Uncle, do you think I’m that kind of person?"
Tang Yue couldn’t help but roll her eyes at him and said, "They are just here to help. Zaozao and Chenchen should be hungry now, so I should head home. They’re your responsibility now."
Tang Yue turned to leave, her gaze sweeping over the two standing straight. She said, "I’ve already told my uncle you’re here to help him. If anything happens, just call me."
"Yes."
"Yes, little sister-in-law."
Li Wei and Yan Dong said solemnly. If Tang Yue hadn’t known better, she might really think they came just to help, without any ulterior motives.
Tang Yue silently wondered what their prospects were in the factory as she remembered the card Meng Siyu had given her, mentioning it was the profit from Yipin Inn.
She detoured to the bank and withdrew US$ 1,000.
As she looked at the balance after withdrawing the money, she was stunned.
There was so much money accumulated over the years, enough to buy two or three houses.
Lost in thought on her way back, Tang Yue remained silent until she reached home, at which point she felt at ease. After feeding the two kids, she pondered how to discuss the money with Meng Siyu when he returned.
Night.
"Si Yu, I have something to tell you."
As soon as Meng Siyu came home, Tang Yue called him into the room.
Zhang Hualian and Mo Xiaolin thought Tang Yue had something private to say, so they remarked, "Xiao Yue, dinner won’t be ready for another hour. Take your time."
Tang Yue acknowledged this and returned to the room, handing over the receipt to ask, "Si Yu, isn’t this too much money? This money..."
"Don’t worry, this money was earned legitimately." Meng Siyu glanced casually, a smile curling at his lips. He took her hand and said, "Yipin Inn is doing well now. The business is growing, so earning this much is proper."
"Uh."
Tang Yue hesitated, her small face scrunched, asking, "But, isn’t it too much?"
"There’s also the money from An Chong." Meng Siyu added.
"You mean from the security company you often do assignments for?" Tang Yue asked.
She always felt something was off, but hearing it from Meng Siyu now, it suddenly made sense. She wondered why Meng Siyu often got injured while with the team before.
"Yes." Meng Siyu nodded and said, "Each of us has a code name for assignments that pay well. But don’t worry; all the money is earned legally, and although some tasks are dangerous, they’re lawful."
Carefully explaining, Meng Siyu said that with his team salary alone, there’s no way he could afford a house.
Tang Yue, bewildered, looked at Meng Siyu, feeling like his words were fantasy.
She felt an even deeper admiration for her hero at home.
Meng Siyu pulled her to sit by the bed, gazing intensely at her, and said, "I didn’t tell you before because I was worried about you."
"And now you’re not worried that I’ll fret?" Tang Yue muttered, throwing herself into his arms, thinking about the unknown hardships and pains he endured, her heart filled with an overwhelming tenderness.
"Of course, I am worried, but you must also believe in your man’s capabilities, right?" Meng Siyu teased, rubbing her forehead affectionately.
Tang Yue might be wealthy, but Meng Siyu also hoped she’d spend some of the money he earned on things she liked. Since she liked houses, why not buy them instead of leaving the money untouched in the account?
"I don’t care what you do as long as you stay safe. That’s all that matters to me." Tang Yue nestled into his embrace, grumbling softly, "If you ever get into trouble, I’ll remarry and have Zaozao and Chenchen call someone else ’Dad’, and I..."
Before she could finish, Meng Siyu pressed his lips to hers.
He playfully bit her as a punishment, stating, "I won’t give you that chance."
Tang Yue meant to talk about Li Wei and the others, but was too occupied with Meng Siyu’s teasing to touch the topic. Covering her lips, now red and swollen from the kissing, she wished to hide in a hole somewhere.
"Oh dear, how will I face people now?" Tang Yue lamented, staring into the mirror, her face flushed and lips crimson. Clearly, she couldn’t hide what they had just done in the room.
"It’s all your fault."
Tang Yue walked to the bed, grabbed a stuffed toy, and threw it at Meng Siyu, eyes round with mock fury, saying, "I’m going to be laughed at by my mother and yours!"
"It looks good. Why can’t you face people?" Meng Siyu caught the toy, placing it back on the bed. His dark eyes watched Tang Yue, her gaze captivating despite her indignation, especially the bright red of her lips, making him want to kiss her again.
"Hmph."
Tang Yue turned away, ignoring him. After washing her face with warm water, she felt the redness subside and her lips less conspicuous. Only then did she allow Meng Siyu to bring the children in. Today, she’d feed Zaozao and Chenchen before having dinner herself.
